What is Pelvic Health Therapy?
Many patients with urinary, bowel and/or sexual symptoms and/or pelvic pain often have dysfunctional pelvic floor muscles, specifically a group of muscles called the Levator Ani and obturator Internus. They are responsible for bladder and bowel control as well as sexual functioning. Very often, when these muscles are tight, they can cause pain and or dysfunction of the bladder, bowel and genitals. Physiotherapy is a very important part of a multi-disciplinary medical intervention.

There are many causes of pelvic pain and dysfunction. In general problems can arise from structural or somatic abnormalities, visceral diseased or dysfunction, activity related injuries or physical trauma. Many men and women are silently suffering needlessly, avoiding activities like exercising and socializing. Treatments are available and customized based on the individual needs of the patient.
